Description
Spotted halfway up the side of a plant pot and quietly on its way to snaffle a houseplant snack, this snail brings a sense of humour to your indoor jungle. Its simple, sculptural shape is created by bending wire into the outline of a snail, using the pattern template as a guide. A French knitted cord made using Scheepjes Softfun is then slid over the frame to bring the design to life. Luckily, this slow-moving visitor is no real threat to your greenery!
